Ecliminae
Eclimini is a tribe of bee flies in the family Bombyliidae. This tribe was formerly considered a subfamily of Bombyliidae, but was transferred to the subfamily Bombyliinae as a result of research published in 2019.

Bee Fly
The Bombyliidae are a family of flies, commonly known as bee flies. Adults generally feed on nectar and pollen, some being important pollinators. Larvae are mostly parasitoids of other insects. Overview The Bombyliidae are a large family of flies comprising hundreds of genera, but the life cycles of most species are known poorly, or not at all. They range in size from very small (2 mm in length) to very large for flies (wingspan of some 40 mm).Hull, Frank Montgomery, Bee flies of the world: the genera of the family Bombyliidae Washington, Smithsonian Institution Press 1973 . Downloadable from: https://archive.org/details/beefliesofworl2861973hull When at rest, many species hold their wings at a characteristic "swept back" angle. Adults generally feed on nectar and pollen, some being important pollinators, often with spectacularly long proboscises adapted to plants such as ''Lapeirousia'' species with very long, narrow floral tubes. Unlike butterflies, bee flies hold t ...
